Could there be a "complete" subcommand, that would allow non-interactive

Yes, I think it should have that. Right now, the code's a bit messy,
and there's no "engine", just mostly-separe
It would allow easy implementation of
completion in shell, possibly emacs etc.
Fai's not really suitable for scripting at the moment, so while shell
would make sense, I'm not sure about emacs.

Looks reasonable. I don't know that I'll have any prefixes, though.
I suppose you might also want to be able to do "complete --source-files"
or "complete --command".
I haven't sorted out how to handle completion for external (aba)
commands, and I hope to have native replacements for all tla commands,
eventually.
Obviously, you can't complete arguments to a command, when you don't
know what arguments they have. Perhaps if they had some special
subcommand, say 'grammar', that gave you spec for the completion...
Yeah, one way would be:
package-versions [--library] [--full] [--revisions] ARCHIVE
I'd also like to specify the output format at the same time, but maybe
I'm getting ahead of myself.
Just gave it a try and got:
/home/bulb/src/fai/aba/commands/apply-changeset: 16: Syntax error: Bad
substitution
The line in question is:
if [ "${1:0:1}" = "-" ] ; then
It has to be written as:
if expr "$1" : "-"; then
or the first line has to be:
#!/bin/bash
Ah. I'll apply that fix.
